What would show on a ov stick if you were pregnant?

I'm trying the 1st resonse ov sticks this month, I've got 20 of the things to test each day with as I'm not really sure when I ov - and, I was wondering, what would happen if you POAS and were pregnant and didn't know? Would you just not get a peak, or would it be a constant peak?

Oooo I'm the same I have 20 too and they're v clever by telling you that they only last 30 days! I ov'd on Monday and still getting +ve today (just poas for the hell of it really)! I have been googling this and it seems that LH can stay in your system for a while after OV hence still getting +ve. To be honest I've not liked using them that much... how have you got on?

Well I'm not sure about them to be honest, I test the same time each day (only started on Sunday - as that was the end of AF), and don't drink or go to the loo for a few hours before testing, and I find that somedays I have a faint second line and somedays no line - but the intensity and thickness of the control line seems to vary each day and it seems to takes ages to show, which is making me question the reliablility a bit.

I think I should ovulate around next weekend so I suppose I'll see what happens then.

We have only been trying a couple of months but I'm starting to feel desperate, everyone around me is announcing they are pregnant and I felt a bit fed up - which is what lead me to try the ov sticks - hubby thinks I'm bonkers, I'm getting obessed!

hahaha i have the same response from my OH although i think he is getting more obsessed now..!! He has been inspecting the sticks too!! lol.

I had two lines every single day and had positives on CD14 and CD21, according to my temps i ov'd on CD21 so not sure where the +ve on CD14 came from. But its worrying cos if I hadn't been checking temp i would've thought that was it and stopped poas - may have missed ov altogether! I dont think i'll bother with them next month... if i dont get my BFP this month of course... PMA!!! x

hi ladies, I'm not sure if the ov sticks you are using are different to the ebay cheapies I've used for a while. But in answer to the originial qu - yes ov sitcks can def be positive when they detect hcg (pregnancy hormone) as well as LH (ov hormone). PG tests cannot be used to detect ov tho. hope that helps.

well i think that you're meant to start charting from CD1 - I enter all mine onto fertilityfriend.com and it gets quite technical to be honest. I dont really understand it all... but have a look on the website. Even if you started now I guess you would notice when you get the sudden increase which tells you that you have ov'd? x

Thank you ladies for you replies - that's what I thought but wasn't sure...

Secretive Sue - Think I'm going to buy a thermometer this weekend and start making a note of my temps. Just done another FR ov test and the line is slightly darker than yesterday but still not dark enough....It's funny how I sit watching it willing for it to get darker...lol - god knows what I'll be like when I eventually get a BFP (which will be in a few weeks of course!! - PMA PMA!)
